168 Political Purge of Versailles (Reward Plus Fourth Shift)

Under the efficient sources of the Marquis de Lafayette, from King Louis XVI to the common paupers in the city of Versailles, in less than half a day they learned a deliberately distorted fact:

"The French Foreign Legion has attacked Paris, the capital of the Kingdom of France, without authorization, and there is a group of people intent on uniting with the French Foreign Legion of Viscount Lin Haoda to subvert the gains of the French Revolution and overthrow the National Constituent Assembly that had been enacted for two months." The Marquis de Lafayette, who was awarded the post of commander-in-chief of the National Guard by the National Constituent Assembly, officially announced that in order to defend the victorious achievements of the French Revolution, it is now entering a state of emergency military control in wartime, searching for all suspicious elements who may subvert the existing regime of the French government, and asking the people to stay at home quietly, and the National Guard will swear to defend the sacred human rights granted by the French Revolution and defend the free and equal constitution of the kingdom! “

This proclamation was used by the Marquis de Lafayette to reassure people, and to find a plausible reason for his subsequent military actions. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

After this proclamation was issued, the deceived kings Louis XVI and Maria. Queen Antoinette roared angrily in the Palace of Versailles and tried to mobilize the few Imperial Guards they had.

However, this act of King Louis XVI just proves the truth of the lies of the Marquis de Lafayette!

When the people of Versailles saw that the Imperial Forest Army began to move, they had to believe the announcement of the Marquis de Lafayette, the commander-in-chief of the National Guard, and the tens of thousands of National Guards led by the Marquis de Lafayette also 'belatedly' rushed to block them back after the Royal Forest Army was launched!

King Louis XVI was dumbfounded when hundreds of Imperial Guards were surrounded by countless National Guards, and he finally realized that he had completely fallen into the trap carefully laid by the Marquis de Lafayette, and that most of the feudal aristocracy of Versailles had fled with a huge amount of wealth, and he could not fight against the Marquis de Lafayette, who had regained command of the National Guard!

King Louis XVI, who recognized the reality, agreed to the Guards to lay down their arms and be disarmed under the promise of the Marquis de Lafayette, and the king's family was also confined to the Palace of Versailles and became the 'canary' inside, and the Marquis de Lafayette promised that after this political turmoil was over, the freedom of the king's family would be restored.

As for the letter of commitment of the Marquis de Lafayette, which was released by King Louis XVI, it was directly captured by the National Guard, which had already been arranged, and King Louis XVI lost even the last bargaining chip......

All this happened so quickly that the Marquis de Lafayette, who had disarmed the King's Imperial Army, had once again gained the approval of the people of Versailles and the sincere allegiance of the soldiers of the National Guard, who had completed their militarized training and knew that it was the duty of a soldier to obey orders, but it was a great pleasure to be able to disarm the normally arrogant Imperial Army.

The democratic patriots in the National Constituent Assembly, seeing what was happening, hesitated about the political leanings of the Marquis de Lafayette, and did not immediately convene the National Constituent Assembly to deny the proclamation made by the Marquis Lafayette privately!

Because the news of the attack of the French Foreign Legion on the city of Paris is true! The Marquis de Lafayette also disarmed the Guards, and King Louis XVI was placed under house arrest at Versailles......

In any case, there seems to be no reason for the democratic patriots to dismiss the Marquis de Lafayette at a critical time when the city of Paris is under attack, after all, the National Guard is in great need of a military commander with prestige and talent during the war, and the Marquis de Lafayette, the commander-in-chief of the National Guard, does not look like a 'bad guy' in any way.

The hesitation of the democratic patriots is tantamount to suicide, and the National Constituent Assembly, which was not convened in time, deprived them of the last chance to counteract, because the National Guard is not the private soldier of the Marquis de Lafayette, even if he has installed a large number of cronies, once the National Constituent Assembly convenes to declare the Marquis de Lafayette's proclamation illegal, more than half of the National Guard will be on the side of the French government!

It is precisely because of this that the Marquis de Lafayette was the first to take action to eradicate the unpopular forces of the king's lineage, on the one hand, to win the hearts of the people of Versailles, so that the people of Versailles at least stand on a neutral position and not to make trouble, and on the other hand, to paralyze the democratic patriots in power!

Apparently, the Marquis de Lafayette's ploy succeeded!

After dealing with the Imperial Guards, from the evening of September 30, a part of the National Guard, which was planted by the Marquis de Lafayette and controlled by a large number of cronies, broke into the homes of those members of the National Constituent Assembly in an organized and purposeful manner with flintlock pistols!

These National Guards, controlled by the Marquis de Lafayette's cronies, according to the precise list provided by the Marquis de Lafayette, began to arrest the French at dinner time, and caught the democratic-patriot politicians by surprise!

Most of the democratic-patriot parliamentarians, before they understood what was going on, were arrested in Versailles prison by the officers and soldiers of the National Guard loyal to the Marquis de Lafayette, with the arrest warrant of the commander-in-chief of the National Guard personally issued by the Marquis de Lafayette, along with their families!

Subsequently, the Marquis de Lafayette, in his capacity as commander-in-chief of the National Guard, told the people of Versailles not to panic, that this was merely arresting hostile elements who were trying to restore the king's autocracy......

The confused people of Versailles maintained a collective silence in the intricate and chaotic news, and at the moment when their personal safety was not violated, after all, in the face of the army, most French civilians still retained a sense of awe, not to mention the order of the Marquis de Lafayette, who had just disarmed the king's royal army, should be quite reliable......

In the silence and confusion of the people, the arrest of the Marquis de Lafayette was so successful that overnight, the prisons of Versailles were overcrowded, and the officers and soldiers of the National Guard, loyal to the Marquis de Lafayette, threw these democratic patriot members who once sat high in the National Constituent Assembly into the overcrowded collective prison like canned sardines!

The original prisoners were all transferred, and the largest prison in Versailles held only one kind of people - democrats, patriots, politicians and their families!

The bourgeois constitutional monarchist parliamentarians, who had long been connected with the Marquis de Lafayette, watched in amazement as the Marquis de Lafayette came down with a combination of punches, they didn't know the specific plan of the Marquis Lafayette, and naturally they didn't expect him to arrest all the well-known democratic patriots in Versailles in this way!

What the bourgeois constitutional monarchist politicians do not understand is that the Marquis de Lafayette did not know that these high-profile democratic-patriotic politicians were easy to arrest and difficult to triment.

If they were shot en masse, it would be even more terrible, and if so many members of the National Constituent Assembly were shot at once without trial, wouldn't it be a naked slap in the face of the entire French people?

Just as the bourgeois constitutional monarchist politicians were wondering what the Marquis de Lafayette was going to do with the hot group of democratic-patriotic politicians, a loud bang broke out throughout Versailles in the prison where the democratic-patriots were being held in the early morning of the next day!

I don't know how much black powder was detonated, and the prison was blown up along with all the imprisoned democratic patriot politicians and their families, which was quickly characterized by the Marquis de Lafayette as a murder orchestrated by the king's restorationists, because some members of the democratic patriot politicians were imprisoned in it, and the king's restorationists hated these democratic-patriotic politicians so much that they did not hesitate to blow up the entire prison to murder these people......

Obviously, the Marquis de Lafayette, who had just disarmed the King's Imperial Army, could not be the restorer of the King's autocracy!

The bourgeois constitutional monarchist parliamentarians watched as the democratic-patriot politicians, who controlled the majority of the voting power in the National Constituent Assembly, all went to God with a loud bang......

This group of bourgeois constitutional monarchist politicians, who wanted money, power, and power, saw the Marquis de Lafayette's methods, and once again strengthened the basic principle of political cooperation with him......

The defeat of the Marquis de Lafayette would do no good to the bourgeois constitutional monarchists, and it would be possible to force this unscrupulous madman to die together, and these rich bourgeois bigwigs did not want to be arrested and sent to heaven en masse like those democratic patriots......

All this happened so quickly, but the Marquis de Lafayette still felt that it was not enough, and after the democratic-patriot politicians came to heaven en masse with their families, the National Constituent Assembly, escorted by the National Guard, held an extraordinary session with rare efficiency!

The bourgeois constitutional monarchists looked at the National Constituent Assembly, which had more than half of the seats and the entire hall was much more spacious, and after a second of silence in their hearts for the unjustly defended democratic patriots, they began to discuss the 'merits' of the Marquis de Lafayette, how to deal with the rebellion in the city of Paris, and the election of the Marquis de Lafayette to the throne of the National Constituent Assembly!

You must know that the original National Constituent Assembly no longer created the post of Speaker after the resignation of the Marquis de Lafayette!

Now, the Marquis de Lafayette has used a series of thunderous means to regain everything he lost!

As for the democratic-patriot politicians who have been bombed into the sky, no one will pay attention to them, and it is foreseeable that there will be a historical vacuum in the political forces representing the people, which will then be filled by some careerists who have been in the opposition!

What the Marquis de Lafayette did not know was that at the moment of the explosion in the Versailles prison, Robespierre's face was filled with a smug smile.
